Echoes in the Earth

ECHOES IN THE EARTH is the new collection of poetry by Pusphita Awasthi, edited by Trevor Maynard, editor of The Poetic Bond series. Pushpita's work swirls with energy: darting and surprising, leaping and resting, comforting and challenging, energy which, it was my role to find melody and harmony, to bring together in such a way as the work would flow with the ease of the Ganges, intrinsic to the soul of humanity, of the planet, and of the universe. This collection is therefore, a journey - a spiritual, philosophical, and human journey. Drawn into six sections, ECHOES reveals not only the personality of the poet herself, but also her relation to other people; to society, to our symbiotic relationship with our planet, and to the all-encompassing energy of our universe. Speaking in August, 2016, Trevor Maynard says of the book "I feel she was drawn to the ethos of The Poetic Bond, which in turn drew me towards her work, and so a complementary exchange become possible, a balancing of energy between the creator and the curator, and I hope my role became that of guide, identifying and promoting a poetic pathway that could become a collection, that became, this book."
